SDCC 08: Penny Arcade Panel Report

We've got news on the next installment of Gabe and Tycho's adventures.

By Greg Miller

As the second official day of the San Diego Comic-Con began to wind down, the cunning minds behind Penny Arcade took over a conference room for an entire panel dedicated to audience Q&A. Jerry "Tycho" Holkins and Mike "Gabe" Krahulik spoke for an hour about where their web comic has been, about where it's going, and about Deep Crows. When it came to their episodic videogame -- Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness -- the boys said they expected the worse when episode one debuted on Xbox Live in May and were thrilled with the positive reaction. There's going to be a total of four installments, and the next one is set to land this fall. No word on whether or not that fall date is good for the PlayStation Network, which is still waiting for episode one.
